I forgot to mention that i know all the theory behind 3d, i spent a lot of time back in 2006 modeling stuff, nothing good because i didnt have the artistic skills but i know all about loops, extrudes, the importance of quads, even the render passes ( since im a compositor ) what i really need is to work on my artistic…
Hi, guys! As I said before I don't use callback. I'm new to maxscript and... Sync, your code is too complicated to me. :) Here the steps that I use to get the last selected vertex: 1. selecet some vertices - 10 for example 2. start script what script do: 2.1. store vertex selection in array 2.2. max undo 2.3 store vertex…
Joltya your high poly looks very good but I think you can afford to spend quite some more triangles in the wheels of your low poly so it will bake better. If the purpose of this bike is to shine in your folio, as other users have stated, limiting yourself on triangle budget isn't as usefull as you may think. People that…
I finally caved and picked up a wii this weekend, got the mario red one. Grabbed goldeneye and dead space extraction which was done by the same guys (eurocom). the art in both games is fucking stellar for being on the wii. the lighting in some areas of goldeneye rivals some nextgen stuff ive seen, not in terms of shadow…
Which program are you using? Yes I use an invisible low poly cage for physics. Using a lower poly invisible cage will help keep your calculation time lower. It also lets you omit little details that can cause issues like a belt, a holster or rivets. For objects that interact with characters I use biped as a deflection…
You know if you want to make 3d models, you can just start making them right away. The part where you have to pull out a huge amount of detail, picking the right colours and all will come with alot of practice. We werent born artists, we became one. For me, I practice my stuff almost the entire time of the day and even now…
Yep you got it. It's a cheap way to get up and down motion if you only have access to bone rotation. An even easier method if you can use bone position(transform) is to use a spring controller but most games don't allow position (unreal does, not sure about unity or torque. [ame]…
Great yes, I've been reading all I can, I found the tute below helpful but noticed it was 2006, I think I will use this tutorial to create my tiling textures... but are there newer updated techniques im missing? http://www.game-artist.net/forums/support/182-step-step-techniques-tiling-textures-3ds-max.html at any rate I…
(Disclaimer - Please don't take offense to anything I say here, only suggestions) your first page is your name and what to click on. I think something stronger like immediately going to the 3D art page would be more beneficial to the person viewing your site. Having to click multiple times in the image window to see your…
Why can't you call up the places on his resume and ask if he was employed during those times? That's information that they're legally allowed to share. I have the game texturing book (…
